Dear Parents,

The success of our school depends largely on you, our parents. Your willingness to volunteer your time and talent is greatly appreciated!

As you know, the Archdiocese, in an effort to ensure the safety of our children, mandates specific clearances and trainings for all staff and volunteers. These clearances are required of all volunteers including field trip chaperones, ice cream parents, and/or any volunteer who is here on a weekly basis.  

We suggest that those who foresee volunteering in any capacity acquire the necessary training and clearances in advance of any scheduled trip or activity.  If you are unsure of your current status, feel free to call the office at 610-933-7562.

Again, we thank you for your generosity to our school and your cooperation in accepting diocesan policy.
